Answer:

a. $700,000

b. 40% increase

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

a)

Increase in sales = 20%

So last unit sale

= Unit sales ÷ increased unit sales percentage

= 60,000 ÷ 1.2

= 50,000

Previous year operating income is

= Last unit sales × (Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit) - Fixed expenses

= 50,000 × ($50-$30) - $500,000

= $500,000

Current Net operating income is

= Current units sales × (Selling price per unit - variable cost per unit) - Fixed expenses

= 60,000 × ($50-$30) - $500,000

= $700,000

b)

Percentage increase in net operating income is

= (Current Net operating income - Previous year operating income) ÷ Previous year operating income

= ($700,000 - $500,000) ÷ $500,000

= 40% increase

The net operating income is the income which is come after deducting all the variable cost, fixed cost from the sales revenue i.e earned by the company
